if you were the one to find the trailer, would you give it all back? or would you take a little for yourself, say the Matchless or 65 Blackface... ;) man, it would be hard to resist

I'd give it back. To deprive anybody of equipment like that is a crime against humanity.

That really sucks, but I wonder how they did it.

That bites. Check this out, an even bigger gear theft that happened a few years back to Sonic Youth. I think to this day they've only recovered like 4 of the guitars.
The guitars
The other stuff

And while we're on the topic of thefts, I read somewhere that Fall Out Boy's bassist had his cell phone stolen. He was upset because it was full of "racy photos." Good times.

"Racy Photos" of him and the drummer.

Well, sometimes you have to take the bad with the good when your band is detrimental to all things music.
